so here i've found a website, where you can go CALCULATE what your body's Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is.
Also, their is another calculator which tests how much your calorie intake should be IN ORDER to balance out your daily acitivities!
how cool is that? (:
-- check it out -- http://www.bodyforlife2.com/calorie_intake.htm
and this other link from the same website calculates your BODY MASS INDEX (BMS)

did you know,
that it is better to actually eat more carbohydrates rather than fats even though they are both STILL FATS in the end?
this is because fats are automatically stored as fat in your body when eaten.
However, in the case of carbohydrates, your body uses more energy in the chemical processes of converting carbohydrates or proteins into fats, which means that that some calories are actually burned in the storing and conversion process.
On the other hand though,
we still need fats to help our body function properly, like to absorb the vitamins we ingest.
The maximum amount of fats which should come from our daily intake of calories is 30%.
however, 25% would be a healthier option which would do more good to our body.

heres another thing!
who loves ITALIAN?
to not love italian food would just mean that you MAD.
really.NOW LET'S SEE WHATS HIDDEN BENEATH THAT TEMPTINGLY BUTTERY HEAVEN SMELLING PLATE OF CARBONARA SPAGHETTI!
By downing a 245g plate of carbonara spaghetti,
you are converting 317 calories of fat, into FAT!
and if you were to have a 1500c-calorie intake daily, that plate of spaghetti would have already chalked up 317 calories of fat out of the 375 calories (25% of 15000) which you should be taking!
and, thats only O-N-E meal you're counting,
and did i mention that that was only the calories coming from the FATS in the spaghetti?
the actual amount of calories coming from the spaghetti is actually a WHOPPING 796!
Let's look at breakfast.
ooh, ROTI PRATA.
how many calories?
644 for 2 slices.
oohooh,
HOW ABOUT CURRY.
yummyyummy CURRY CHICKEN!
a mixture of oil, coconut milk (VERYVERY FATTENING), chicken fats/skin, more COCONUT MILK, more oil which is secreted from the chicken.
and so muchh more.
this is one heck of a FATTENING DAY.
definately already overshotting the maximum intake of calories of fat intake per day
ohoh!
and today, a couple of friends and i were totally craving for like SEOUL GARDEN BBQ-ED BEEF AND CALAMARI!
so happyhappy us head down to JURONG POINT
and OMG.

okay-just SO THAT FISH AND CO WILL NOT GET MAD AT US and sue FOR LIKE TYPING THIS HERE AND ALL,
the service was really good and the waiter waitering us was REALLY nice and the food was GOOD.
(although it DID NOT satisfy out craving for BEEF and SOTONG)
FIRST UP!
the heavenly smelling BUTTER GARLIC MUSSELS arrived at our table with a basket of warm bread.
dip the bread in and put it in your mouth!
its so so good except that there are JUST a gazillion fat calories hidden inside the creamy buttermilk sauce entirely enveloping the mussels!
butter (fat) + milk (fat) + bread(carbohydrates aka UNBROKEN down fat) + mussels!(protein)
= OOh. FAT to the power of 3 + protein!
next on the MENU!
NEW YORK FISH AND CHIPS.
908 calories
36g protein
54g fat
478mg sodium
is that alot?
IT IS.
the fish is deep fried after being coverd with a batter of flour.
and flour is already CARBOHYDRATES. why do all the TASTY TASTING FOOD HAVE TO BE SO SINFUL. *shakes head*
in addition, the french fries which had already been proven to be really very unhealthy from the previous posts.
and not forgetting THE BUTTERMILK sauce drizzled over the fish.
